I don't understand the intricacies of the coherent API to judge if it's
a bug in the API itself. In any case, here's where the splat comes from:
void dma_free_attrs(struct device *dev, size_t size, void *cpu_addr,
dma_addr_t dma_handle, unsigned long attrs)
{
const struct dma_map_ops *ops = get_dma_ops(dev);
if (dma_release_from_dev_coherent(dev, get_order(size), cpu_addr))
return;
/*
* On non-coherent platforms which implement DMA-coherent buffers via
* non-cacheable remaps, ops->free() may call vunmap(). Thus getting
* this far in IRQ context is a) at risk of a BUG_ON() or trying to
* sleep on some machines, and b) an indication that the driver is
* probably misusing the coherent API anyway.
*/
WARN_ON(irqs_disabled());
if (!cpu_addr)
return;
debug_dma_free_coherent(dev, size, cpu_addr, dma_handle);
if (dma_is_direct(ops))
dma_direct_free(dev, size, cpu_addr, dma_handle, attrs);
else if (ops->free)
ops->free(dev, size, cpu_addr, dma_handle, attrs);
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL(dma_free_attrs);
maybe you're gonna have to fire up a workqueue to free this memory for
you :-(
Unless someone else has better ideas. Alan, Greg, any ideas?
